The collection, Black Fire This Time, features the work of over 100 black writers from across the U.S., Caribbean and Africa.
"It was discovered during the course of publication that several writers had pieces about Emmett Till," said Heather Buchanan, publisher. "It was an amazing moment of recognition for our team about the impact of Emmett's murder resonating in black literature nearly 70 years after his death."
The Emmett Till works in Black Fire This Time include:
"What Mamie Till Gave the World" by Curtis L. Crisler
